LAIKA presents Wildwood: The Exhibition

A child-focused Halloween afternoon of paper mask-making, myth-spotting and collaborative drawing inspired by mythical monsters, spirits and shapeshifters. Activities are designed for ages 5–11, with a chill-out space available.

Simone Brewster's first museum show explores her multidisciplinary practice across jewellery, furniture, sculpture and public architecture. Four sections trace how material histories, the female form and African diasporic traditions shape work ranging from ebonised furniture to a large-scale pillar and sound piece.

The final exhibition in Leighton House's centenary programme examines the nineteenth-century artist's studio as a workplace and source of inspiration. Across the historic house and two galleries, 56 rarely seen paintings, drawings and photographs include work by Lawrence Alma-Tadema, Paul Cézanne and Henri Matisse.
